However, I do ask that you do not claim them as your own work, and give this site or myself credit when they are used publicly. I freely share all my photographs on this blog site to all those who may find them interesting and useful.
Please do not ask to be added to my non-existent Linkedin profile. New: I have not subscribed to the Linkedin service and if my profile appears there I am unaware of its origin. I am not here to help you with your illness or your thesis! Finally, please realize, I am not a physician therefore I cannot offer medical advice.
THUNDERHOUSE FONT LOWERCASE PATCH
I absolutely will not offer to diagnose your ailment, be it that dry patch on your backside, that thingy you pulled out of your ear or that green stuff growing on the sides of your refrigerator! Please do not send me your photos for identification. Please note that I probably will not respond to most comments as I barely have the time and energy to add new content to this blog.
I welcome any comments related to my posts, be it positive or constructive criticism. I've reluctantly added it but may regret it. E-coli & Ascorbic Acid Electron Micrographs.Hope you enjoy the photos shared here at "Fun With Microbiology - What's Buggin' You?" As my prof once said "Microorganisms don't read textbooks so they don't know how they should behave." Microorganism are quite clever too - they have managed to evade our best efforts in being controlled for long or to be eradicated. Microorganisms are fascinating creatures which exhibit diversity and cannot be summed up in a few short paragraphs or depicted with a single black & white photo tucked into the bottom corner of a page. I was always disappointed in the single photo depicting an organism as found in most textbooks. I hope this blog site has evolved into a collection of photo-essays on organisms covered in a bit more detail than found at other sites or in most textbooks. While I would wish to have a somewhat equal balance of bacterial, mycobacterial & parasite posts, the majority of photogenic organisms that come my way are fungal. As I had no original writing to contribute, I chose to share some photos which I had taken. I apologize for the disproportional amount of fungal posts as this site should be about 'Microbiology'. Somehow it all got away from me and I find myself enslaved to the site, trying to find more and more interesting "photogenic" organisms to document.Īnother apology appears elsewhere in this blog, however it is worth reiterating here. Put on the spot, I typed in "Fun With Microbiology - What's Buggin' You?" I now wish I could have thought of something clever and a bit more dignified. This entire endeavor started somewhat as a joke, my never intending to do much more. My wife suggested I try 'Blogging' to pass the time while recuperating from a major illness. My apology for the lame title of this Blog. It is of a wet preparation stained with Lactophenol Cotton Blue and viewed under x800. The photomicrograph above has the indicator pointed at one of the typical poroconidia which is attached to it‘s conidophore from where it has branched off the hyphae. Surgical debridement may be indicated in some cases, such as sinusitis The conidia, which are also called poroconidia, are 3- to 6-celled, fusoid to cylindrical in shape and are light to dark brown in color.Īmphotericin B and ketoconazole are used in treatment of Bipolaris infections. Conidiophores (4.5-6 µm wide) are brown, simple or branched, bending at the points where each conidium arises from. Bipolaris can infect both immunocompetent and immunocompromised host. The clinical spectrum is diverse, including allergic and chronic invasive sinusitis, keratitis, endophthalmitis, endocarditis, endarteritis, osteomyelitis, meningoencephalitis, peritonitis, otitis media (in agricultural field workers) and fungemia as well as cutaneous and pulmonary infections and allergic bronchopulmonary disease. Bipolaris is one of the causative agents of phaeohyphomycosis. It is cosmopolitan in nature and is isolated from plant debris and soil. Bipolaris is a dematiaceous filamentous fungus.
